Objective: To set up a sensitive and stable technique which has high throughout to detect the instability of microsatellite DNA.
Methods: Genomic DNA extracted from the cancer tissues and their normal tissues were subjected to microsatellite instability(MSI) analysis on five of DNA markers in 115 sporadic colorectal cancers by means of PCR and ion-pair reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography. Genomic DNA extracted from lymphocytes in blood of 20 normal persons were analysed and used as the standard control.
Results: Seventeen (14.8%) MSI-H and 23(20.0%) MSI-L were found in 115 sporadic colorectal cancers. The rates of MSI in the young patients and old patients were much higher than that in the middle-age patients (P<0.05). And the rate of MSI in low differentiation group was also much higher than that in high or middle differentiation groups (P<0.05).
Conclusion: The method the authors developed is a sensitive and accurate technique to detect MSI and has a high throughput.

The increased effectiveness of small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) to induce gene silencing has brought a great therapeutic promise to many diseases. siRNAs are under highly active current research and development. Ligand conjugation and chemical modifications of the sense (SS) and antisense (AS) strands of the siRNA duplex improve stability and facilitate delivery, but significantly increase the complexity of the analytical requirements.

In indirect detection, sample components lacking detectable properties are detected by adding a detectable component to the eluent, a so-called probe that interacts with the analytes to be detected. This study focuses on modeling indirect detection in two principally different cases. In case (1), the analyte component has the same charge as the probe component, so the probe acts as a co-ion of the analyte.

The use of liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (LC-MS) for the characterization of oligonucleotides and nucleic acids is a powerful analytical method. Recently, hydrophilic interaction chromatography (HILIC) has been proposed as a reasonable alternative to ion-pair reversed phase separations of oligonucleotides prior to MS. A wide variety of HILIC stationary phase surface chemistries are currently available.

Ion-pair reversed-phase liquid chromatography (IP-RPLC) is clearly recognized as the gold standard for analyzing therapeutic oligonucleotides (ONs). Recent studies have shown that ONs exhibit an on-off retention behavior in IP-RPLC, meaning that minor changes in acetonitrile (ACN) proportion can significantly impact retention. However, this behavior was initially demonstrated with only a single mobile phase condition.

Article Synopsis
- Rapid advancements in mRNA technology require new analytical techniques, leading to the development of a novel method using ion-pair reversed-phase liquid chromatography with high-resolution mass spectrometry (IP-RP-LC-HRMS) to analyze poly(A) and poly(T) tail lengths in mRNA's DNA template.
- The study involved validating the poly(A) tail length via Sanger sequencing, amplifying double-stranded DNA using PCR, and confirming sample quality through gel or capillary electrophoresis before extracting and analyzing the tails with LC-MS for precise length determination.
- The results showed that while LC-MS correlated well with Sanger sequencing, it also detected unexpected minor populations of poly(A) tails of varying lengths, suggesting potential
